Alarm in the Schwalm-Eder district: Police warn of increasing burglaries!
Reports of break-ins and thefts have been increasing recently in the Schwalm-Eder district. The police are urgently drawing attention to the current situation and giving valuable tips on how to protect yourself from such crimes. In recent weeks there have been increasing reports of thefts from vehicles and break-ins in basements and garages. There was an incident in Gombeth between 12:30 a.m. and 6 a.m. on October 2nd in which thieves targeted an unlocked car. The perpetrators stole money, bank cards and ID cards from the vehicle. In Körle, too, an e-bike and an e-scooter had to be used from an unlocked basement room between Tuesday, 12:30 a.m. and Wednesday, 10 a.m. These incidents are just examples of a series of similar crimes that have recently shaken the region.

In order to effectively protect citizens from crime, the police advise increased attention and the implementation of important security precautions. This includes always locking the vehicle carefully, even if you are only away for a short time, and avoiding leaving valuables in the car. Security in your own home should also be a priority: house, cellar and garage doors should always be locked, and good lighting outside can deter potential perpetrators. Suspicious people or vehicles should be reported immediately via the emergency number 110.
